MCC CDL-A Truck Driving — Commercial Driver's License Class A Preparation (Day & Evening)
Metropolitan Community College
About This Opportunity
MCC offers CDL-A (Commercial Driver's License, Class A) preparation training — the license required to operate 18-wheelers, semi-trucks, flatbeds, tankers, and virtually every large commercial vehicle. Omaha is one of the most important logistics hubs in the United States, home to Werner Enterprises (one of the largest trucking companies in the country), Union Pacific Railroad, and a massive regional distribution sector. CDL-A drivers in Omaha are in acute demand, and qualified drivers can command $55,000–$85,000+/yr with the right employer and endorsements. MCC offers both day and evening schedule options. Before enrolling, you must obtain a Commercial Learner's Permit (CLP) from the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles, complete a DOT physical, and pass a drug screen — these are federal requirements, not just MCC requirements. You must be at least 18 years old to obtain a CDL in Nebraska (21+ for interstate commercial driving). The program is financial aid eligible. Contact Kitty Lillethorup at 531-622-5827 for current schedule, cost, and enrollment requirements.
